Ms. Rojas' 1st Grade Bilingual class at Hutchins began Hispanic Heritage Month on September 16th by dressing in cultural clothing and watching a video.
Students then created flags representing their culture, detailing their favorite foods, music, clothing, and cultural aspects. They paired up to share their creations and learn about each other.
To continue the fun, they will also explore and celebrate notable Hispanic/Latino figures in history. See the fun here: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGSWN5lZXc/3DD6m7UZlK2K0fsp9LTR-Q/watch?utm_content=DAGSWN5lZXc&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=editor

Ms. Nafegar's 2nd grade class spent time learning about Ancient Greek Civilizations whose contributions can be seen in many areas of our lives today. Ms. Nafegar even dressed as a Greek Goddess to engage her students and get them excited about learning!
On the screen behind Ms. Nafegar, Pheidippides is beginning his run to Sparta to fight for the Athenian generals. The boys in the class are pretending to hold their spears since 7 year olds were of age to go to war. The girls in class were wiping their tears because they were sad that all the men and boys were leaving to go to war. These students are stretching their brains and learning so much this school year!
El Campo High School's awesome faculty threw a birthday bash for the fabulous August and September Birthdays, complete with cake and a feast from Father & Sons!
Mrs. Treme's Kindergarteners had some fun learning time with shaving cream for earning 10 tokens for great behavior! They wrote their name, numbers, letters, heart words, and drew some pictures.
Good Luck Swim & Dive on your season! Check out their schedule and make plans to see them in action! https://core-docs.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/2854/ECISD/4731445/Swim.pdf

ECMS Alert: Late yesterday afternoon, students reacted quickly and responsibly reporting to middle school staff and administration about a disturbing picture. The middle school responded quickly and involved the campus SRO and the El Campo Police Department. The threat was determined to be a hoax by the police. We have taken deep precautions to ensure student safety. We take all threats seriously and act on all reports. Please help us by being proactive and reporting threats directly to the school via our tipline or calling the school district directly rather than posting to social media. Our tipline informs us immediately regardless of time day or night. Thank you for your support in ensuring student safety and protecting our schools. Our tip line is "Say Something" and is located at www.ecisd.org.
